So I tried to make random accounts like "LGSLDMHGSD" Or something like that and I didn't know there was a limit so I ruined all my other accounts. Now I'm really angry about that. And now the only way to delete accounts is to contact long distance and my mom wouldn't let me do that for a million bucks. Maxis really needs to add the ability to "Delete accounts" cause their are so many frustrated spore users on here.

We need the delete account button again! Everyones frustrated about it. People can't make any new accounts because of the limit of 5. I don't want to contact Maxis or EA about it! It would probably take a year by the amount of patches we've gotten this year(one for US)... EA has horrible customer service compared to some other companies. They can barely run a forum correctly...

Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, As it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, The power, and the glory, For ever and ever. Amen.

How do I delete my screennames that I don't want? I don't want to waste hours trying to contact EA which already has bad customer service anyway. Why can't there be a delete button that when you want to delete the account it asks you if you're sure you want it to be deleted. Then you'll have to login to completly delete it. Taking away the ability to do something is like taking
away someones hand(s)(but less dramatic...). You could instead ask them if they want to lose their hands then have them sign a contract so their hands can be disposed of without any problems.

so it's great that this has been working and i'm thankfull for it - my little brother can have an account on my game. however, just today i installed this on our new computer and it will let me log on, but won't let his account log on, saying it can't register the game with that account and that he has insufficient privileges. i've searched the forums and found similar incidents, but no fixes. what's going on? is it the new computer or what?

sorry for posting this here, i didn't want to make a new thread

Is his account an account tied to the Spore account you're using, or a trial account?
